Rating: Summary: Five stars for what it is.... Review: ...not what it's not. Folks, this isn't Chariots of Fire or The Hours. It's a funny story of two good-hearted losers whose dream is to meet hot chicks and open a night club. That's it. It's not groundbreaking. It doesn't define an era. It's funny as heck, good characters, pretty funny situations, hot chicks, and a fun ending. It's an hour and a half of fun and great dance tunes. People compare this to "It's Pat." Not in my book, "It's Pat" was pretty plotless and largely unwatchable. This has a real plot, a ton more people in it, and great music. Plus, I think this was made with a real budget.
Rating: Summary: INCREDIBLE!!! Review: This movie made me laugh so hard I gained a nice six pack!!! It is FUNNY!!! Will & Chris do great! I just bought the DVD cuz I had to have it in my collection! BUY IT TODAY!!!
Rating: Summary: Kattan and Ferrell SCORE with A Night at the Roxbury! Review: This film SCORES with its blend of naive sexuality, sweetness, self-discovery and downright slapstick humor. The Butabi Brothers may be clueless, but you'll cheer them on as they search for the disco holy grail. The Butabis persevere in an odyssey that includes scheming golddiggers, Richard Grieco and an illegal race car, overbearing family and a rather large, stern bouncer who just won't let the brothers past those velvet ropes into their disco dream! You'll want to watch it over and over!
Rating: Summary: i loved this movie Review: i saw this on the paycable channels, and fell in love instantly. chris kattan and will ferrell are hilarious together, and they share that special comedic chemistry that other great duos, such as the blues brothers and laurel and hardy and abbott and costello, shared. truly a hilarious movie, with supporting cast molly shannon, dan hedeya, and loni anderson just brilliantly rounding out the movie, adding a special depth to the film. highly recommended.
Rating: Summary: brayn Review: this is so stupid it is funney most clubbers who watch who clubbed at that time can just laugh at how these guys bust on clubbers all the way round. clubbers are diffrent poeple and this movie to make fun of us in such a way that all different poeple can understand and laugh, good movie i suggest picking this one up. especially clubbers fm late 90's. that haddaway song was so played out in the scene it was funney to hear in the beggining of the movie.
Rating: Summary: Great fun Review: You might not expect much of this movie, but it actually is much fun. Two rather dumb boys try to get into the nightclub Roxbury - this might not sound like a great storyline, but it is a nonsense storyline just like the movie is a nonsense movie - in a positive way though. Congratulations to Richard Grieco for his sense of humour and for accepting the role as himself.
Rating: Summary: Funny Review: Funny. If you're in your late 30's or early 40's and have ever been to a nite-club, you'll probably recognize some of the music and the lifestyle. Video reproduction on the DVD was fair, but the sound quality was very, very good.
Rating: Summary: A Night At The Roxbury Review: NIGHT AT THE ROXBURY is funny! Kattan and Ferrell did a good job of giving these sketch characters personality because as I remember this on SNL episodes, the only thing rhat they would do is their silly dance. It was good to see this get a good a transition from SNL sketch comedy to film. Kattan and Ferrell (Doug and Steve Butobi) are 2 brothers that have 3 goals in life. 1) Look Good, 2) Build their own club and 3) Get into the Roxbury, a high class guest list only night club. After meeting 80's TV icon Richard Greico (played by himself), they finally get a taste of the Roxbury and they get to know the man that owns the club. He then wants to set up a meeting with them but his assistant (Colin Quinn) wants to make sure that they don't ever get the chance. So now, the Butobi boys have to find the owner, set up the meeting and make their lives complete by owning their own club. This one is pretty funny. Out of the wave of new SNL spin off movies (SUPERSTAR, LADIE'S MAN and BLUES BROTHERS 2000). NIGHT AT THE ROXBURY is one of my favorites. It's not my all time favorite SNL spin off (WAYNE'S WORLD all the way!) but it is worth it and it has some great laughs in it as well. For those of you who are familiar to this sketch, this gets a big thumbs up and to those of you who aren't familiar with this one, you might want to rent it first because I've known a few people that didn't like this one because they didn't know what the concept behind this movie was. Also check out other great SNL based movies like WAYNE'S WORLD and WAYNE'S WORLD 2, SUPERSTAR and the original BLUES BROTHERS movie.
Rating: Summary: I'm sorry but I didn't find this movie funny Review: First off: what happened to the just natural humor that the early 90's SNL cast brought. The new cast just isn't funny. They try too much to live up to the greats (Chris Farely, David Spade, Mike Meyers, Adam Sandler, Dana Carvey, etc.) but they don't realize that they will never be as funny as them. This movie is a perfect example of that. SNL went from actual humor to just 2 hours of ongoing sex jokes. Although I did laugh at the Roxbury SNL skits, this movie just made me dissapointed, along with other SNL movies like Superstar and a couple others. They should just give up now. The old SNL cast was a legend. This time, it's just a wannabe joke. Watch the Roxbury skits and save your money on the movie. "A Night At The Roxbury" runs for about 90 minutes. It is rated PG-13 for sexual humor and language.
Rating: Summary: So stupidly funny!... Review: If you liked the late 90s episodes of SNL, you'll certainly love this! Ferrell and Kattan are so CLUELESS in this movie, it's a riot! Shannon was excellent too! A very talented and attractive cast may I add. :)
